Critics Consensus

Joaquin Phoenix's eponymous Joker takes the stand in a sequel that dances around while the story remains still, although Lady Gaga's wildcard energy gives Folie á Deux some verve.

Audience Says

A broken Joker and his Lady’s voice provide Folie à Deux with enough kindling to keep a tepid fire burning for the clown prince of crime.

Folie à Deux is a punishingly dull affair. It’s a pointless sequel with very little plot. It wastes the talent on screen, and it squanders the genuinely intriguing conceit of its characters breaking into song.

Joker: Folie a Deux is a masterpiece. Not a once-in-a-generation masterpiece but an ambitious and emotionally intelligent film that challenges everything it touches.

I was often bored, occasionally disgusted and only mildly entertained.

MacGuffin or Meaning (Substack)

“Folie à Deux” roughly translates to “shared madness.” The problem is the movie isn’t sure who is mad and who is sharing that madness.

Rated: 2/5

Cape Cod Wave Magazine

It’s downbeat, relentlessly unsettling, arguably unsatisfying. ... But ... the movie is a riveting challenge and its weirdness – such as when the Joker affects a Southern accent while defending himself in court – can be quite amusing in its audaciousness.

Rated: 3/4

I didn’t expect a musical. It was a horrible experience and sequel to such a good first one.
